I wanted to make another hard bait on my 3D printer. Since squarebills are probably one of the most common bass baits I figured it would be a great addition to my arsenal of 3d printed fishing lures.
This lure is of my own design is slow floating and dives to a depth of around 5 ft. Perfect for cruising down low and bouncing off of rock piles. I designed this in fusion 360 and printed it out on my ender 3 pro out of petg. Of course like all of my other lures it can be downloaded for free. This video is broken into two segments. The first part is a design overview and background of the lure. The second part is an assembly guide so you can make this yourself.
If you have any questions leave a comment down below and I will do my best to answer it.

Would love absolutely love a 10xd deep dive style lure . Have yet to see a good 3d printed model and would like to see your take on it

@HandCraftedAngling Год назад

Not a bad idea at all will definitely add it to the list. It would be great to add a deep diver to the list

@ryancole4297 Год назад

How do you download a file or whatever to make those crank baits?

@HandCraftedAngling Год назад

The file is a 3d model that is meant to be printed on a 3d printer. You would print it out and then assemble it following the steps in the video. I plan on doing a tutorial series on how to get into 3d printing specifically for making fishing lures. I want to have a few more lure designs before I do this so someone could go pick up a 3d printer and have a decent selection of lures to print.

I have made a few of these, I put them together just like you. I can get them to track at all. What could I be doing wrong? They all wan to track to the left and they float on the side.

@HandCraftedAngling 7 месяцев назад

Really sorry to hear that! So the tracking was an issue I did have a little bit of. They tracked fine for normal casting which was the way I tested it. After I posted the video I tried trolling them and at higher speeds they would blow out to the side. I think the lip is a little to big and I need to play with the line tie angle. But it should track normally with a normal retrieve. Mine had no issues with floating on the side though. That sounds like a weight/ ballast issue. This is honestly one of the lures I plan on revisiting. It came out a bit larger than I wanted and I also want to make it more stable. My email is HandCraftedAngling@gmail.com I would be happy to try and help you diagnose whatever is going on if you want to shoot me a message.

@butchlacour4548 7 месяцев назад

It was my fault, I did not have the infill and wall settings set like you specified. Printed a few new ones today. I will test them tomorrow. Thanks

@HandCraftedAngling 7 месяцев назад

@butchlacour4548 let me know how it works out. Unfortunately especially with small baits the weighting can be kind of difficult to nail down

@butchlacour4548 7 месяцев назад

yeah my ball bearings are one size bigger that 1/4 inch. It sank like a rock. Still playing with it though..

@HandCraftedAngling 7 месяцев назад

Yeah it was slow floating when I made it. I’m changing up the hardbait design from now on to have wider weight holes so people can tune it to their liking.
